Heat a 10-inch/25cm non-stick pan over medium high heat, and add the neutral oil. Add the wontons in one layer to the pan, and fry for a few minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown and slightly crispy.
With the pan still over medium-high heat, use a cover as a shield and add ⅓ cup water. Cover immediately, and steam the wontons over medium-high heat for 7-8 minutes, or until most of the water has evaporated.
Meanwhile, mix your dipping sauce. Combine the sesame paste with the hot water until you get a smooth thin consistency. Add the light soy sauce, chili oil (if using), sugar, garlic and scallion. Mix well.
Serve the pan-fried wontons with your dipping sauce and enjoy!
